Chapter 105 Camp Scenery
Almost at the moment when Luo Sha finished speaking, the candidates who were originally in various locations disappeared.
After the candidates set off, the familiar mirage technique was once again unfolded in front of the audience.
Because some candidates were eliminated, the total number that needs to be taken into account by the Mirage Technique this time is smaller, and the tracking will be more accurate and clearer.
And because of previous experience, we have a lot of ideas about how to better display and which teams to focus on.
And for the audience, it's 'It looks even better!'
Although it was quite fun in the past, the pace was not as fast as it is now.
No matter where you look, you’ll find content you like.
The only drawback is that each person only has two eyes, which is not enough.
Ugetsu didn't have that worry though - after all, she basically only paid attention to Shisui's group.
But it would be nice to have a photographer to follow this exciting activity.
Not only will you not miss out on the exciting scenes, you can also make a special clip and watch it over and over again, or even use it for publicity.
What a pity.
Alas, the ninjas' skills are still not comprehensive enough.
Ugetsu glanced at Orochimaru, who was sitting calmly beside her, and sighed.
Such an obvious action, of course, Orochimaru noticed it:
"What's the matter?"
"Is there no ninjutsu that can record the wonderful scenes and play them over and over again?"
Orochimaru:?
"It would be a shame if we don't share such a wonderful picture with the whole world," Yu Yue lamented.
Orochimaru: ...You are making things difficult for the ninja.
However, after all, they have been working together for many years, so he has become somewhat adaptable to Miss Ugetsu's jumpy and creative way of using ninjas.
I even often agree with Miss Yu Yue's ideas.
It is certainly more meaningful to create more things that can remain in this world than to meaninglessly kill or be killed.
But even he had to say it. Even a ninja is not really incapable of doing anything.
Just as the two of them were discussing the "practicality of ninja technology in daily life", people on the other side of the stadium also scattered.
Although each group's tasks are different.
But generally speaking, it is all about
'Relics'.
In the vast desert before us, there is a lost ancient relic. Although the Sand Village has found relevant records, the exact location and situation are not clear.
Therefore, candidates need to investigate and search for this relic based on the existing information.
——Of course, finding the ruins is only the first part.
The specific task will be revealed after the ruins are found.
“This is a cooperative mission.”
Mizutani stroked his chin.
"It's almost impossible to complete it on your own with just these clues - so this level should require the candidates to unite."
Not only did they think so, other candidates also quickly realized this.
With such a large area and such vague clues, it is almost an impossible task to complete it on your own.
So the teams that were previously scattered like stars in the sky began to look for other teams through various means, preparing to form alliances and cooperate.
No matter what conflicts or ideas you have, wait until the ruins are discovered before discussing them.
This proposal was approved by the majority.
Rather than searching around like a headless fly, it is of course better for everyone to work together to find the 'examination room' and then compete on the same stage .
"The preparation for this exam project in Sand Village is really shady."
During the negotiations, some people couldn't help but complain.
From the initial test to now, there are traps everywhere.
The conditions given were not detailed enough. If there was any slackness or negligence, the whole effort would fail and the whole army would be wiped out.
"It is the Chunin Exam after all."
Despite their complaints, these ninjas who grew up in war have adapted well.
After all, it's just like what Lord Luosha said.
A ninja's mission is never clear-cut. Whether it is the battlefield or the process of the mission, it is ever-changing and full of dangers.
Rather, this kind of exam makes them more convinced.
Personal ability, team ability, intelligence ability, combat effectiveness and judgment, all aspects are tested.
If you lose because you are not as skilled as others, it means you lack ability.
There's nothing to say.
The people who had gathered were divided into two groups.
Some ninjas who have strong individual action capabilities or multiple means of escape continue to go out to investigate and look for other teams.
Another part is good at
Those who were good at interpreting intelligence and ninjas who were good at large-scale combat stayed behind to set up camp while conducting the next step of interpretation and inference based on the intelligence of each team.
It is really not easy to find a relic in such a vast desert.
Especially since they are in a death desert full of dangers, unlike those archaeological teams, they can not stay in a safe environment to rest and work at a leisurely pace.
As soon as the team separated, they all encountered danger.
Sandworms, giant spiders, etc.... The closer you get to the center of the Death Desert, the more frequently these horrific creatures appear.
Whether it was the ninjas who stayed behind to secure the camp or the ninjas who went out to look for clues and companions, the pressure was enormous.
When the audience saw this scene, they also felt worried for the candidates.
This is not a situation where one team fights against one monster. Instead, dozens of monsters appear at the same time.
The scene and the threat were completely different from the past.
Huge in size, ferocious monsters that seemed to exist only in people's imagination emerged from the sand dunes and under the desert.
Each attack was so fierce that the sand raised during the actions seemed to cover the sky and the sun.
Even if the mirage technique was urgently adjusted to capture the image at a closer distance, it was useless.
There was sand everywhere, and the shadowy figure of a monster.
In the face of such a catastrophic situation, the tiny human beings have completely lost their sense of existence.
——Is the Ninja Exam so cruel?
The audience also gained a new understanding of the Ninja Exam.
They had thought it would be a little dangerous at best, but it mostly showed off various ninja moves and fantastic ninjutsu.
This time people are no longer just sweating.
Many people even dare not watch it anymore.
I was afraid that those young boys and girls who were full of life before would lose their lives here.
But soon, with a loud bang, the monsters that seemed like natural disasters and seemed invincible were attacked one after another.
Explosions, burning sounds...all kinds of sounds were heard.
The picture also shook violently as the giants collapsed.
Bang bang bang.
"Those on the left continue to hold the enemy back! Those who have finished fighting, go and provide support immediately!"
"If you're injured, retreat to my place! We have medical ninjas here, don't be afraid!"
“The giant desert scorpion at three o’clock is getting out of control!
”
"Those who are good at offensive ninjutsu, hurry up and provide support!"
At the same time, the boys and girls fought side by side, dividing the area in an orderly manner, and briefly appeared in people's vision.
Although the monster's huge body soon fell on the sand, the splashed sand flew high and blocked people's vision again.
But this time, no one was scared.
It would be better to say that the audience was stunned and the venue was completely silent.
After a while, someone finally came to their senses - mainly because they were holding their breath so hard that their face turned purple.
If you don't catch your breath, you'll die.
As he gasped heavily, the people around him also gasped violently.
Really, they were so nervous that they even forgot to breathe.
Now I finally recovered.
So scary.
The huge mouthparts, spiral sharp teeth, and huge body really make people's hands and feet cold and afraid to breathe.
But after the aftereffect wears off, what rushes through the body next is excitement.
Too exciting!
This can win!
Smooth command and combat are still going on.
Advance and retreat in moderation
Oh my god!
How can it be so smooth and handsome?
It's simply art!
The art of fighting!
Although there would be a world-scale war between ninjas roughly every ten years or so, in reality most people had never seen ninjas fighting in groups.
Not to mention fighting a monster of this size.
The story of humans defeating giant beasts that are much stronger than themselves is a story that people have always talked about. This kind of scene that directly hits the pleasure point engraved in people's DNA naturally makes people's emotions fall into a climax.
Humans unite to defeat monsters!
There is such a touching and real scene in the world.
This is more shocking and more joyful than any movie or novel.
"I used to think of ninjas as nothing more than escorts. How shallow of me. They were able to defeat monsters like this!"
"That little girl in blue is not only cute but also extremely powerful. She's so strong! How can there be such a perfect person?"
"How did they do that? The scorpion's tail just snapped and broke! That's a tail as long as a person's!"
Don't worry
When one's life is in danger, all those previously terrifying and thrilling places turn into excitement that makes one's adrenaline surge and one can't stop.
When I recall those scenes that once frightened me... I just want to jump up and scream.
Not jumping up and screaming was already the most reserved thing they could do.
Some people
"Who knows the identity of that curly-haired boy? He is controlling a desert giant lizard again! Oh my God! Is he a lizard tamer?"
"I want to know too! The desert monitor lizard is so obedient - can you let me touch it after the game? Money is not a problem! I have money!"
"Is it a matter of money?"
Hearing his words, the people next to him glanced over.
Just money.
It's as if no one has it.
If only it were that easy to buy with money!
——These words are really heartbreaking.
At least Hyde's face turned green after hearing this.
If money was so easy to get, why would he go through so much trouble?
As for why it hasn’t been completed after so many years of preparation?
Hyde, sitting among the crowd, was extremely anxious.
First, Fengwai disappeared, and then Rank, who went to look for Fengwai, reported once and has not been seen since.
He didn't understand why it was so difficult to just get rid of a supplier.
We can only count on Camilla.
He looked at the scene in the mirage technique with a gloomy and uncertain expression .
——It doesn’t matter even if Rank and Fengwai both failed.
As long as Camilla can successfully drive the fortress here, everything will change.
That’s right!
Hyde no longer cares about gains and losses.
Things have come to this point, there is no room for him to retreat - if he really stops here, then all his past efforts will be in vain, how can he do that?
Once a loss starts, it is extremely difficult to stop.
Not to mention the excitement of the audience, the ninjas who had finished the battle had already started to establish a temporary base.
These ninjas are also experts in surviving in the wild.
Everyone knew what to do, and they all acted in tacit understanding without much communication.
——Although everyone is an experienced person, when the camp is actually established, the styles are also varied, with various
Sample.
Those who have their own materials,
There are also those who are lazy and use local materials or directly use ninjutsu.
The ninjas from the Sand Village over there just made a bulging "sandbag" - it looks like an Eskimo igloo, except that it's made of sand.
Some people also use earth escape to directly create two pieces of earth standing on the sand, and then put a piece of cloth on it as a "roof".
In short, it allows people to see how many kinds of activities there are when sleeping outdoors.
Shelters were built in the camp, like flowers with unique characteristics blooming in the desert.
But there are also some people who stand out even at this time.
Especially when other people use a sheet as a bed and a cloak or something as a quilt.
The team with waterproof mats and quilts stood out.
Not only that, they even brought cooking utensils, and the tents they built were more exquisite and beautiful than those of others.
This is too much!
We are all ninjas, and we are all taking the Chunin Exams, is this necessary?! ?
This team seems out of place with the others.
Of course it is Uchiha Shisui's team.
Not only that, they even prepared a lot of food and drinks.
"Someone's injured here! Is there any medical ninja—"
"We have medicine!"
"Is there any ninja who can use water escape technique?"
"We have ice! We can just use fire escape to melt it!"
In a moment, the people of Uchiha Shisui's team were seen shuttling around like butterflies, providing various supplies to the people in the camp.
The thorough preparations and abundant supplies are eye-catching.
Someone couldn't help but asked with a twitch in the corner of his mouth:
"Did you know this would happen?"
Otherwise, who would prepare so many things for the Chunin Exam? Don't ninjas always save as much as possible and travel as light as possible?
Even noble gentlemen may not bring as many things as you do when they travel, right?
"Someone is worried."
The curly-haired boy spoke with a smile.
"Anyway, there's nothing that says you can't bring these with you to the Chunin Exams."
Others: …
Why do I feel unhappy for no apparent reason?
I was asking about the reason, but why do I feel like I'm being exposed?
All over your face?
As he spoke, Uchiha Shisui seemed to remember something and took out a palm-sized jar from his backpack.
"I also brought scar removal products that are not yet on sale at the Yuyue store. Anyone who needs them can come to us for help."
It’s too much. It’s really too much.
Forget about the previous ones, but why did you bring such an outrageous thing as scar removal products?
"Damn it, I'll have to report this to the organizers when I get back. They'll have to ban it from being brought in... wuwuwuwu."
However, before the young man could vent his anger, his companions covered his mouth on both sides and dragged him away.
“Mmmm—Mmmmm!?” What are you doing!
The young man was speechless, so he could only use his eyes to ask his companions around him.
What are you doing? Am I wrong?
We should be on the same side!
However, his companion only looked at him with a serious expression.
"What are you crazy about!"
"Hmm?" What?
"It's too late to try to please me now, but you actually want to report it and ask the organizer to ban it!?"
"Have you ever thought about the fact that if we fail this exam, we will have to take the next one?"
The girl on the left has a hideous face.
"Will you just want to eat bran and vegetables by then?"
The boy on the right looked a little better—but still just as grim and serious.
Although no one has done this before, it can make your life more comfortable, so why not?
“Remember this - those who are willing to spend a lot of effort to bring supplies and share them are all Bodhisattvas.”
And the Bodhisattva should be grateful!
"oh……"
The young man shrank his head.
Regardless of whether he really agrees with this statement in his heart.
He was not stupid enough to go against his teammates at this moment.
What's more, they are right.
This feeling of having everything is really great.
So when the people who went out to search came back with people from other teams, everyone was stunned.
A little further away, there were traces of fighting everywhere.
There are also dead giant 'natives'.
Their hearts were lifted at the time - after all, it looked really intense.
They almost immediately imagined the miserable scene of the camp after the fierce battle.
.
Some of the teammates who stayed behind were so nervous that their hearts were about to jump out of their throats.
After all, because they are teammates, they know their situations better - they are really not good at fighting!
However, when they rushed towards the camp as if their butts were on fire.
“It smells so good.”
The sense of smell comes into play before the vision.
"It's barbecue, right...and stew?"
People who love to eat can identify the source of fragrance by taste.
"…It can't be an illusion!"
Some people are also wary.
After all, the companions who stayed here had just experienced a battle.
Besides, this is the center of the Death Desert, how can there be such an enticing smell of food! ?
With this guess, people acted much more cautiously when approaching.
——Even if their companions who stayed behind were tricked, don’t they still have these people?
At least the whole army hasn't been wiped out, right?
When they crossed the sand dunes, what appeared before them was a happy... joyful scene?
Not only was the camp tidy, but the imagined scene of the camp being filled with seriously injured soldiers and people dying but unable to do anything about it did not appear.
And those teammates who they were so worried about were now holding bowls of meat and living a comfortable life.
Looking closely, some people are even in better condition than before.
That little face was so smooth that even the scars on it seemed to be shiny...
Wait, where's the scar?
Why is there such a long scar on your face?
Illusion! This must be an illusion!
The man immediately became nervous - if it wasn't an illusion, how could the scar on his companion's face disappear?
At this time, some people in the camp also noticed their companions who had returned exhausted, and they hurriedly greeted them:
"You guys are back, come and eat! Shisui brought a lot of delicious food!"
Although a lot of the meat and other ingredients are locally sourced.
But he provided the seasonings and tools.
"It's not bad compared to the special barbecue we had in Sand Village!"
Something is wrong with the road!
At a time like this! How can anyone be in the mood to eat and drink!
Besides, even if they were in the mood, where did they get so many things?
The man almost attacked on the spot.
Since it is an illusion, he only needs to break it.
That’s good!
"So... Hey! What are you doing!?"
The person being beaten was almost hit by a punch. Although he was not hurt, a large piece of the barbecue fell to the ground.
The barbecue I finally got was dropped after just two bites... Who can stand this?
"Asshole! What did you do!"
"You are the bastard! It's just an illusion..."
"Who is the illusion?"
The ninja who was serving barbecue to his companions also got angry.
Not only did you ruin your own barbecue, but you also said that you were an illusion... Are you sick?
Can't you tell it by 'solving' it? Don't say you didn't learn it in ninja school.
The atmosphere on both sides suddenly became tense.
Fortunately, the people around reacted in time and avoided a tragedy of cannibalism.
But after experiencing this ridiculous conflict, the returning ninjas were sure that everything they saw was not an illusion or an enemy conspiracy.
But it is a real scene.
The campsite is just that good.
Only the ninja who had almost attacked his own people before was still obsessed with his teammate's scar.
"But what about the scar on his face! Such a long scar can't just disappear because of a fight with the monsters in the Death Desert!"
"Idiot, of course it's because it was removed."
That person was so angry that he almost laughed.
As he spoke, he moved the side with the scar closer.
"Actually, it's still there, but it's very faint and not obvious anymore."
The man looked closely and found that the scar on his teammate's face had not completely disappeared, and there was still a white mark.
But unlike the brown marks in the past, this white scar cannot be seen clearly without careful observation.
Shocked.
He was out for a long time, but why did he feel the world was different?
"Thanks to the scar removal products from Ugetsu Store!"
Although the scars on his face were not completely removed, the ninja was already very satisfied with the result.
This way, you don’t have to worry about scaring your younger brothers and sisters when it’s dim at night!
Others who have used the scar removal product have also spoken well of it.
As a ninja, who doesn’t have scars on his body?
There are people who don't care, but there are also many people who care very much.
Of course, being injured is better than dying when fighting, but at other times, looking at the scars on your body.
Who wouldn’t be upset?
Everything that the candidates experienced was faithfully recorded by the "Mirage Technique".
The audience naturally saw the excellence of Uchiha Shinobi’s various supplies – especially the scar removal cream, which was simply miraculous.
After applying it for half a day, the scar really disappeared.
Although it didn't disappear 100%, but after applying scar removal cream and then covering it with some kind of mask, the scar faded to the point of almost disappearing. They witnessed it with their own eyes!
My heart is moved.
I was deeply moved.
"Yuyue Store actually has such a great new product, how come I didn't know about it?"
"I heard that it is still under testing and adjustment..."
"Why are you still testing it when the effect is so good? Release it now!"
Apparently there aren't just one or two people who don't like the scars on their bodies.
"I heard that the owner of Yuyue Store is here too... Let's go to the Yuyue Store in the outer city together and let the owner see our sincerity!"
“That boy who took out the scar removal cream must be from the Ugetsu store, right? Even if he’s not, they must be related. If we support him, Boss Ugetsu should be able to see our sincerity!”
“That makes sense!”
People started discussing it.
People originally thought that this magical product was the best.
But when the sun set and night began to fall, people exclaimed again.
“So beautiful.”
Lights began to light up in the camp as it was gradually shrouded in darkness.
Lights were on at each team's temporary base.
Of course, the brightest one is Uchiha Shisui.
It has now become the core of information interpretation and analysis.
The boys and girls took the information they had and carefully analyzed and discussed it together.
There was a bonfire burning in the middle of them. The light of the fire shone on the faces of the boys and girls, creating a completely different atmosphere than usual.
Behind them were various garrisons and tiny dots of light.
As the night deepened, the stars in the sky began to twinkle.
On the sand dunes, flowers bloomed and the twinkling lights seemed to echo each other.
“…It’s so beautiful.”
Although you can see the same night view even if you live in Sand Village.
But because it is surrounded by buildings, it loses the feeling of being in the desert.
.
Not to mention the "starlight" in the sky and on the ground shining together.
"Although I know it's the Death Desert...but I also really want to set up a tent there with my friends."
Bring enough things with you in advance so that you can eat, drink and sleep well even in the desert!
"Yeah... Damn it, can't there be a desert tent activity? I'm willing to spend money to go - let me spend money!"
Hyde listened to these people's words: "..."
Are you crazy or am I crazy???
Forget about queuing up for the side dishes.
How come there are still people who don’t want to live in a perfectly good house but want to go to the desert and eat sand!
He was really going to be pissed off by these people.
As night fell, Rank, who had been lying in ambush for half a day, finally could no longer hold back.
She had found the supplier's location in the afternoon and had been lurking since then - because she was not sure whether what was happening here had been discovered by the people of the Sand Village.
But she waited all afternoon and there was no movement.
Rank also felt that this place was suspicious, but it was the only place where Feng Wai's whereabouts could be found.
We can't wait any longer.
Rank thought.
——The worst that can happen is just killing a few more people.
I am the strongest person who possesses the Gray Stone!!
